Turns out there is a silver lining to getting kicked in the head by a train worker as you try to take a selfie. That's what happened to Saskatchewan man Jared Frank when he was traveling in Peru, and his video of the incident, posted last week, of course went viral. Now, after 23 million views on YouTube, Frank has agreed to work with California-based Jukin Media to earn money off the video. "I got all these different offers ... and they were all legit," the 22-year-old, who insists he was a safe distance from the train at the time, tells CBC. His video could earn anywhere from $2 to $16 for every 1,000 views, and Frank will get 70%; there are also potential licensing opportunities. Frank says he'll use the money to go to film school.

1965 immigration act:. In order to convince the American people of the legislation's merits, its proponents assured that passage would not influence America's culture significantly. President Johnson called the bill "not a revolutionary bill. It does not affect the lives of millions",[4] while Secretary of State Dean Rusk estimated only a few thousand Indian immigrants over the next five years, and other politicians, including Senator Ted Kennedy, hastened to reassure the populace that the demographic mix would not be affected; these assertions would later prove grossly inaccurate.[5]. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immigration_and_Nationality_Act_of_1965 "criminal aliens", not "illegal aliens"

Imagine how rich Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, and Joe Biden would be if they could cash in on all the times they had been kicked in the head.

"Safe distance"? He was within inches of a freight train rolling at him, ignoring the horn blast, while he fiddled with his phone. He's lucky he's not dead. The train driver did him a favor by knocking him clear. What he did was monumentally stupid and apparently he didn't learn a thing. Please - get a brain.
